Lyre's Coffee Originale is crafted as a non-alcoholic alternative to traditional coffee liqueurs (such as Kahlúa or Tia Maria). It aims to capture the rich, complex, and aromatic essence of coffee liqueur, making it perfect for non-alcoholic Espresso Martinis, Black or White Russians, adding depth to other cocktails, or even drizzling over ice cream.
Tasting Notes:
-
Nose: Expect a powerful and inviting aroma of freshly brewed espresso, dark roasted coffee beans, bittersweet dark chocolate or cacao, burnt caramel, and hints of vanilla.
-
Palate: The taste is dominated by rich, full-flavored espresso coffee notes, balanced by a generous sweetness reminiscent of caramel or molasses. Layers of dark chocolate, vanilla, and potentially subtle nutty or spiced undertones add complexity. It typically has a smooth, full-bodied, and slightly syrupy texture.
-
Finish: The finish is usually smooth, rich, and lingering, leaving pleasant notes of high-quality coffee, dark chocolate, and vanilla sweetness on the palate.
In essence, Lyre's Coffee Originale focuses on delivering that intense, sweet, and decadent coffee profile essential for many popular cocktails and desserts, without the alcohol.
